What is this? I've never seen a mosquito with such unicoloured abdomen, ventrally. Confusing - I don't even get the genus. 2016-07-10, northern Germany, garden Lennart Bendixen attached the following image:  [295.72Kb] Edited by Lennart Bendixen on 05-02-2017 14:35 |

This seems to be Aedes cinereus/geminus. Females are morphologically indistinguishable, and both species occur in Germany.

Ok, many thanks. Aedes spp. seem to be much more common than I thought. |
